Tests of Christian Character

Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Character Tests of; The Righteous Character of First Line: Who, O Lord, with Thee abiding Lyrics: 1 Who, O Lord, with Thee abiding, In Thy house shall be Thy guest? Who, his feet to Zion turning, In Thy holy hill shall rest? He that ever walks uprightly, Does the right without a fear, When he speaks, he speaks not lightly, But with truth and love sincere. 2 He that slanders not his brother, Does no evil to a friend; To reproaches of another He refuses to attend. Wicked men win not his favor, But the good who fear the Lord; From his vow he will not waver, Tho' it bring him sad reward. 3 Freely to the needy lending, No excess he asks again; And the innocent befriending, He desires not praise of men. Doing this, and evil spurning, He shall nevermore be moved: This the man with Thee sojourning, This the man by Thee approved. Scripture: Psalm 15 Used With Tune: HELEN

"Altogether Lovely"

Author: Samuel Stennett Appears in 907 hymnals Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Majestic sweetness sits enthroned Lyrics: 1 Majestic sweetness sits enthroned Upon the Saviour's brow; His head with radiant glories crowned, His lips with grace o'erflow. 2 No mortal can with him compare, Among the sons of men; Fairer is he than all the fair That fill the heavenly train. 3 He saw me plunged in deep distress, He flew to my relief; For me he bore the shameful cross, And carried all my grief. 4 To him I owe my life and breath, And all the joys I have; He makes me triumph over death, He saves me from the grave. 5 To heaven, the place of his abode, He brings my weary feet; Shows me the glories of my God, And makes my joy complete. 6 Since from his bounty I receive Such proofs of love divine, Had I a thousand hearts to give, Lord! they should all be thine. Scripture: Psalm 45:2 Used With Tune: ORTONVILLE

Psalm 23

Author: Henry W. Baker Appears in 680 hymnals Topics: Christ Character of First Line: The King of love my Shepherd is Lyrics: 1 The King of love my Shepherd is, Whose goodness faileth never, I nothing lack if I am his, And he is mine for ever. 2 Where streams of living water flow My ransomed soul he leadeth, And, where the verdant pastures grow, With food celestial feedeth. 3 Perverse and foolish, oft I strayed, But yet in love he sought me, And on his shoulder gently laid, And home, rejoicing, brought me. 4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill With thee, dear Lord, beside me, Thy rod and staff my comfort still, Thy cross before to guide me. 5 Thou spread'st a table in my sight, Thy unction grace bestoweth. And, oh, what transport of delight From thy pure chalice floweth. 6 And so through all the length of days Thy goodness faileth never, Good Shepherd! may I sing thy praise Within thy house for ever.
